Backstage Affair
When playwright Genera McCanton first sets eyes on golden boy photographer's model Edward Aldin, it's lust at first sight. Problem is, while she's got it bad for him physically, she can't stand him. She hates his condescension and snide remarks. Most of all, she hates that he snagged the lead role in her first off-Broadway play through his sister, the play's primary financial backer. Edward's early impression of the headstrong playwright isn't much better. Dismissing her as a nasty spitfire and an unpleasant bitch, he still can't stop erotic images of Genera from playing inside his head. As the production moves inexorably toward opening night and as their hot sexual fantasies about one another move toward combustible reality, Genera and Edward find their mutual animosity wearing down. But both must overcome past hurts to move their steamy and turbulent relationship beyond a backstage affair, one that flares hot during the run of a play, only to become ice cold as the final curtain falls. And available December, 2004: Mixed Media , the sequel to Backstage Affair !
